Hold on… this is sounding a lot like last year.
Actually, this year was a little better. I ended up giving someone a Valentine’s gift, and I dropped it off at 7am on their front porch on one of the coldest Florida mornings I can remember. Of course, we ain’t getting blizzards down here so I can’t really complain.
So last year I actually listened to some Rammstein. Maybe if I listen to the right sort of music, I can actually convince myself that everything is ok. How about “I feel loved” by “Depeche Mode”?

It’s the dark night of my soul
And temptation’s taking hold
But through the pain and the suffering
Through the heartache and trembling
I feel loved
I feel loved
As the darkness closes in
In my head I hear whispering
Questioning and beckoning
But I’m not taken in
I feel loved
I feel loved
From the depths of my emptiness
Comes a feeling of inner bliss
I feel wanted, I feel desired
I can feel my soul on fire
I feel loved
I feel loved

Yeah, that’ll do nicely.
